Upon closing of the second tranche of the private placement, Vanadium One Iron is pleased to announce that RAB Capital will become a reporting insider of the Company and hold approximately 11 % of the basic shares outstanding. Philip Richards, Founder and President of RAB Capital stated "RAB Capital is investing because it believes Vanadium One's Mont Sorcier project is a world class asset and will generate strong strategic interest following the resource expansion expected from the current drill program. In addition to its premium product offering, the project is ideally situated with all major infrastructure in place and located in a world class mining and operating jurisdiction that will encourage future development."

Mark Brennan, Executive Chairman commented, "We are extremely delighted to have Philip and RAB Capital join Vanadium One Iron as a significant shareholder to support our efforts to make the Mont Sorcier project a reality. We view RAB Capital's strong support as highlighting the significant value potential we aim to unlock at Mont Sorcier."

Project Update

With robust iron ore market conditions continuing as global economies begin to lift recent restrictions related to COVID 19, Vanadium One is excited to get back into the field and continue to enhance the robust results published for the Mont Sorcier Project through its Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") released early this year (February 27, 2020). The Company notes current 65% grade iron concentrates are trading at over US$125/t, well in excess of the US$92/t assumption that underpins the PEA. Going forward Vanadium One anticipates strong demand to continue as governments look to increase infrastructure funding to increase employment.

With funds in place, the Company plans to undertake a drill program of approximately 3,500 metres focusing on expanding the current resource at Mont Sorcier and deliver a new Mineral Resource Estimate by year end. The aim of the drill program is to increase the current resources to between 900 million to 1.1 billion tonnes at grades of between 24-34% magnetite. This is similar to the grade profile of the current resource. Investors are cautioned that this resource target is conceptual in nature at this time and there has been insufficient exploration to define a new mineral resource. In addition, the company plans to continue its ongoing discussions with various potential strategic partners to move the project forward.

The drill results are expected to enhance the value presented in the PEA as outlined in the Technical Report entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report - Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) of the Mont Sorcier Project, Province of Quebec, Canada". The report was completed by CSA Global Consultants Canada Ltd, an ERM Company (CSA Global) and has an effective date of February 27, 2020. The report was prepared in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. A summary of the results is highlighted below:

PEA Summary Results

The PEA was prepared by CSA Global incorporating contributions from Vulcan Technologies for the Iron and Vanadium Market Pricing Study. The PEA is preliminary in nature, as it includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.

The Technical Report is available for review under the Company's profile on SEDAR and on the Company's website.

Technical Disclosure

The reader is advised that the PEA summarized in this press release is intended to provide only an initial, high-level review of the project potential and design options. The PEA mine plan and economic model include numerous assumptions and the use of Inferred Mineral Resources. Inferred Mineral Resources are considered to be too speculative to be used in an economic analysis except as allowed for by National Instrument 43-101 in PEA studies. There is no guarantee the project economics described herein will be achieved.
